While the expression patterns of cardiac hypertrophy-related genes have been well documented and widely used as markers for hypertrophy, recent research has revealed uncoupling of hypertrophy-related gene profiles and hypertrophic growth. The role of beta-adrenergic signalling in the development of hypertrophy is incompletely understood. The finding of an upregulated expression of hypertrophy-related genes but a suppressed hypertrophy following beta-blockade reveals previously unrecognized sympatho-adrenergic mechanisms of hypertrophic growth.
